…and currently in St Mary’s Church Swansea , for #swanseaartweekend . Do go, it’s very lovely ☀️

Lovely to host some @swanseauni.bsky.social Geography alumni , here in our little corner of Wales , this morning. What a nice part of the job! Enjoyed a few choice quotes -“Geography is essential for everything!” I mean we think so too… 😁💚🌳🌍 Have a great weekend, all, it was a pleasure to meet you!

One of my favourite Welsh treescapes, around the @nationaltrust.org.uk Wales Stackpole lily ponds 💚🌳 Looking very handsome in its end of summer coat 🍁 🍃

Our park and street trees are absolutely vital in hot weather , they provide shade , moisture to the atmosphere, and with it , free air conditioning. #streettrees #urbanwoodland

Lovely to catch up with @wwf.org.uk champ Mark Wright , talking , drawing, and chatting all this awesome and naturey, and see @owendaveydraws.bsky.social fab new book @hayfestival.bsky.social , 💐🙊🍀🐾🦋🌍

Reflecting , after a busy teaching week, on seeing the magnificent Kyoto play from RSC and @goodchancetheatre.bsky.social last week. If you get a chance go see it , it is the most honest piece of climate communication I have ever witnessed 💚🌳🌎 www.rsc.org.uk/kyoto/

😬 optics 😬 … not the greatest day in higher education in Wales …

Something a bit different for this geographer this eve. Thanks
BBCPM for having me on to chat #StormEowyn and what happens when you add climate change to the Atlantic Storm Track . Off to
@swanseageog 70th birthday party now !

After an annoying week of organisational dysfunctionality I’ve decided to spend the weekend reading about who I (apparently) am. Geographer. By literal definition “earthwriter”. Whose definitions do you like ? (And why do students consider geographical thought the cod liver oil of their timetable…)

Some beautiful Welsh irony optics going on this evening … Guess what slows down flood waters? Yup that would be 🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳

(ps the 10% tree cover target was in fact a 3% tree cover target cos Welsh farms already have 6-7% tree cover on average… this wasn’t about trees )

Just sharing from over there…
